Sri Lankans get visa free entry to Thailand for 60 days
Sri Lanka is among 36 countries which have been included in the list which will enjoy visa-free entry to enter Thailand and stay on for 60 days.
The Thailand Cabinet has approved new visa promotions to attract more tourists.
The promotions include visa-free and visa-on-arrival schemes and longer stays for students, and a reduced level of compulsory health insurance for retirees.
The Bangkok post reported;
The Foreign Ministry proposed the measures to attract as many visitors as possible because the national economy depended heavily on tourism, government spokesman Chai Wacharonke said.
He said the number of countries eligible for visa-free entry would increase from 57 to 93. The 36 new countries included Albania, Cambodia, China, India, Jamaica, Kazakhstan, Laos, Mexico, Morocco, Panama, Romania, Sri Lanka and Uzbekistan.
Visitors' stays under this scheme were also extended to 60 days, the government spokesman said.
